Gotta love wee mini aprons, sew quick to stitch up and then tuck in to a greeting card...

Ok, just noticed the "crafting with wine" (bottom right)... It actually says, 'crafting with twine'... Lolol!

Yep. Katmom blessed me with one of them recently made from leftover Dresden Plates I had sent her. Too too adorable. Now, do I need to make a pretty little rag doll to wear it? LOL. But, of course, it "could" be a Limoncello or wine bottle apron too, couldn't it?

I hosted several years of every-other-month mini apron swaps, and Grace hosted a couple, too. I have a large container of mini aprons - seasons, holidays, patriotic, western, farm girl, and many more. They were fun swaps to do.

Love it! I missed the mini apron swaps except for a July 4th one. That's a good idea to add to my scrap buster list.

Jean... One of each! Lol!

Linda, yep, and I still change out the ones hanging in my laundry room.. I put little coffee hooks on a wash board to hang them from.

Heather, you don't have a 4th of July one?
Well, we'll have to fix that!!!

Yep Linda I was in those swaps. I have the Spring and patriotic, Christmas and fall. I missed the western one.

What a great idea Grace! I'll have to find some hooks to hang the loose ones on. The others are in garlands I have made of them.

Grace, you have the cutest display of your mini aprons! What a good idea to attach them to a washboard for fun. I love that latest one you made with the sunflowers. Too cute!!

What an adorable way to display them. And, I have an old washboard hanging in my messy laundry room. Good excuse for me to get in there and spruce it up. Will somebody please resurrect the Mini-Apron swap . . . . pretty please.

LOL! Grace, they were in 2015 and later. Went on for a couple years, I think.

I will resurrect one mini apron swap and we can see what the response is. I'd really like someone else to take it over or maybe a few who will share in the hosting. Hint hint! Since everyone sends their aprons to the host and the host has to divy them up, it does take some time and a few post office trips. LOL!

I have found the rules and will post a Patriotic Swap. Please go take a look and sign up! LOL!

Grace - sorry for the confusion - the 4th of July ones are the only mini's I DO have. I don't have any of the others.

I am not able to do swaps right now but maybe later in the year if they keep going that long.

I remember doing the mini apron swaps shortly after I joined in 2007. The one who hosted those is no longer here.

There are 6 of us who are in the Revival of the Mini Apron swap so far. Come on and join and show off your mini creative talents - crochet or fabric, even knitting if you are so inclined.

Krista - you can easily crochet some of these with your talents in the crochet realm. I posted links in the swap thread for 2 cute crocheted mini aprons. And you could easily do a crocheted half apron. Have I enticed you yet? LOL!!

Alright Linda, how did you know I would be reading this thread?? Lol! I’ll have to check out those patterns and see if they will be easy for me to whip up! I’m still adjusting to a new schedule with baby.

Hey Krista,, I have a few crocheted mini aprons in my stash that I received in past swaps..
Unfortunately I don't have the pattern,,, that being said,, I suspect a simple "square" and then attach a long crochet piece for the ties would be simple,, I think..

I think this one is such a cute idea... Just a piece of lace with a complimentary piece of fabric for the ties.
